Day 17 - Favorite Trek Novel
i like a few; spock's world, metamorphosis, a stitch in time, mosaic, the broken bow novelization. find a list of others here.

Day 18 - Favorite Non-Aligned Race
i don't know. but what happened with the barzan after the wormhole went kaput?
the breen are kind of interesting, mostly because they dress like leia in the bounty hunter outfit from return of the jedi we don't know much about them.
were the bynars non-alligned?

as usual with these things i'll probably do 2 (maybe 3) a day because i don't get on DW every day.

also, some answers may overlap with the previous trek meme.

Day 1 - Favorite TOS episode
not really sure. balance of terror is pretty good for the tension & drama. it's interesting to compare it to the movie that inspired the episode; run silent, run deep.

Day 2 - Favorite Federation Race

i want to say humans, but that's a basic answer. although, basic is sometimes the best you can do.

icon meme

archersangel: ("awake")
The icon meme is going around again. Comment 'Ooo, shiney!' just say you want to to it. if you want me to choose 3 icons for you to talk about.

[personal profile] sixbeforelunch chose the following;


it's for all of those who say "normal is the setting on a washer."


it's chocolate cake with whipped cream of some sort, hard to resist. plus it referenced star trek, which amused me.


i don't know where the quote is from. it was done by [personal profile] misbegotten  & if you read a lot of fiction, you're going to end up with feelings about (& maybe for) fictional characters.

book meme

Italic = read it. Underlined = not this, but something by the same author. Strikethrough = did not finish.

to save myself another headache (having looked through them at the OP's blog) i've only read the crystal cave by mary stewart (and the others in that series).
i've read other things by vonda n. mcintyre & diane duane (star trek novels & in mcintyre's case, a star wars novel).
i don't recognize any other names or titles.


enough titles for a small library )
archersangel: (RDA)
any, any, binge watching )

not related to the 3-sentenct thing, which has it's own, [personal profile] havocthecat is having a (all the) stargate friending meme. so if you're a fan of SG in any form (orgional movie, SG-1 SGA, SGU, the web series or even the animated thing) you can go, fill out the detailed questionnaire & see if you get anyone new to subscribe to you.

i participated in the last 3-sentence friending thing & no one subscribed. but i'm very tempted to do this one.


archersangel: (entertainment)
the current 3-sentence fic-a-thon is over 3,600 comments!

so [personal profile] rthstewart posted an update with more FAQs.

there is also a friending thing going on. i posted in the last one & no one friended me. *sigh*

i went through my 3-sentence fic tag to re-read my stuff & I've been participating in these, both this one & [livejournal.com profile] caramelsilver's since 2013!

and looking at the relevant tag on both of their blogs this has been going on in some form since 2010.

libraries or bookstores - bookstores

pens or pencils - pencils

handwritten or typed - typed

ending a sentence with a preposition or splitting an infinitive - why not both?

truth or fiction - fiction

poetry or prose - prose i suppose

this or that )

Reply to this post with "PORGS!" (or just say you want to do it) and I will pick three of your icons for you to talk about in your own journal, and then keep the meme going by making this offer on your post.

i did it at [personal profile] sixbeforelunch 's & she picked the following;


a black & white cat peaking over the edge of a red box it's in with the work lurk on the icon. used for when i post at journals or communities that i don't follow or don't post at very often.


the ICIC pendant with the letters IDIC on the icon. for those who don't know IDIC is an acronym for infinite diversity in infinite combinations, the basis of vulcan philosophy, celebrating the vast array of variables in the universe. i use if for posts/comments with more unique or unusual theme.



has solo with his hand on his face & *facepalm* on the icon. technically han is not doing a "faceplam" move, if i recall he was reacting to something lando was saying (by kind of wiping his hand over his face) on cloud city in the empire strikes back, in a sort of "i don't believe this" sort of way. used for all of those faceplam moments.

this post explains stuff

January 15: Most Changed Character Over The Series or Film
tom paris. from ex-con to respected bridge officer & family man.

January 16: Scariest or Favorite Villain or Species
the vidiians were pretty creepy.
archersangel: (tv)
see this post for what's going on

January 9: Favorite Time Travel Story
it probably has to be the ST: IV time travel story

January 10: Most Compelling Social Issue
i don't know about "compelling" but the "keeping both sides in an armed conflict even with weapons" in a private little war is an interesting "thorny" issue.
archersangel: (Default)
see the explanation in an earlier post

January 3: Favorite Musical Score and/or Trek Composer (Motion Film, Episode or Overall Series)
you can't go wrong with the trek movie theme that was later used for TNG. IMHO.


January 4: Favorite Command Team Relationship/ CO XO Dynamic
have to go with the team of kirk & spock.
something i didn't realize until this question came up. but except for TNG & VOY, all of the treks have had a human captain & an alien first officer/second-in-command/XO.
archersangel: (Default)

i found it via [tumblr.com profile] captainofthenx02 where every day in january is a different topic. well, i'm no good at posting stuff like this daily so i'll do a couple when i remember now & then. see this post for the topics & consider posting your own answers on the journal site of your choice.

January 1: Favorite Trek Series (Television, Motion Film)
i guess they mean pick from either one? it's hard because i go back & forth on this, but if i have to pick i'd say probably VOY.


January 2: Favorite Novel/Pocket Book and/or Comic book and/or Comic strip and/or FanFiction
there's several that i like but i think i have to pick spock's world by diane duane. i was one of the first trek novels that i read & from what i recall of it, it was a great look at the (possible) history of a fictional planet. see this post on other trek novels i like.

in case that post to tumbler gets deleted, here's the list op topics;
